In our PPS law reform Update - August 2008, we included an easy to use navigation tool and flow chart (PPS Navigator) to assist you in assessing the impact of the draft PPS legislation on your business.

As a result, we have updated the PPS Navigator to account for the new section numbering contained in the Revised Bill and for some of the new concepts introduced by the Revised Bill.
